A "blue tag" notice is used to contact customers at their service address. The purpose could be to notify a customer of a possible leak, requirements for continued water service, returned check or returned mail.

This may take place during the summer months. A combination of low water levels in our reservoirs and high temperatures are excellent conditions for the growth of algae. The algae then creates an oil which permeates the water and creates an almost muddy, musty smell and taste. However, the water is safe to drink. The City of Plano purchases its treated water from the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD). According to the NTMWD, they treat the water for algae, but can remove only about 90%. The condition will persist until cooler weather arrives. Again, the water is safe to drink, but may not be very pleasant to taste. For further information, contact NTMWD, call (972) 442-5405.Visit the North Texas Municipal Water District.

Your sewer charge is based on your winter quarter average. Your sewer charge will not be affected the month you are filling your pool, but if you are filling it during the billing periods of December through March, it could affect your winter quarter average for the next year.
